The BEOT can sell all day long from the left hand to the right, but they aren’t actually making money unless they drag in retail…. This of course happens via fear, fomo, panic, stop losses etc…. Traders reckon they’re consistently making money, BEOT has bots and computers and fibre optic connections to the mainframe on their side…. So who is losing money? Just retail getting stopped out? I reckon there’s far less money actually changing hands than there appears to be. We’ll-practised sleight-of-hand by the BEOT pushing the SP and triggering retail like puppets. The puppets get inverted and their pockets emptied lol. All just “marginal” volumes exaggerating the price movement, a bit like the spot prices! Anyway the games will continue and we’ll be on the way back up soon enough imo. Imo retail traders are a bit like the little fishies that follow the sharks around…. It’s all good picking up the scraps…. until you become lunch yourself! GLA!

What you say makes sense - but who are the “retail” investors that make the volume to pad their pockets? Most retail investors ar at work and have better things to do (aside from a few semi-retired like myself - and like me presumably only a small proportion actually trade)
